Common cold
Hello doctors
I wanted to know for how long a cold can be stretched??
My son presented with cold symptoms of running nose n congestion since 21st september afternoon.
I gave sinarest for 4 days. I gave montecope syrup 4.5 ml once in the evening for 6 days.
Today is his 9th day. But i can see his congestion is still there. Thick yellow sticky mucus is coming.
I need to give otrivin nasal drop for sound sleep.
Sometimes he is completely ok. And sometimes because of stuffed nose he feels very mesarable.
Apart from this he is super active. He feels very weak when nasal discharge starts.
For how long these will happen?? What should be done now??
Greeting. We are dealing with live priceless life. Cold can be stretched if you don't follow the instruction Otrivin nasal drops are not for sound sleep. Never think like this. I am going to see that the child becomes free of symptoms.. Now first is youRelax. We are dealing with life.
ihave read again again I I am giving Indian herbs which are good for Common Cold. I. don't find age of your child You have given enough of anti allergic drugs with anti congestive drugs.. Start with steam inhalation. Take care of your child while steam inhalation. .Give Vitamin C soluble Vitamin C 500mg once a day.. please do not give other drugs.
